InCD By Guy Smith
-----------------
InCD tells the user which CD is online and gives a short message (or a
long message) from the sysop about the CD.
Legal Stuff
-----------
This little program is totally free. I have included the source code
for your reading pleasure (and for a couple laughs since I am just
learning C). Use it as you want. It would be nice if you sent me any
changes or hints on programming the Amiga.
I cannot guarantee or be held liable for any damages this program might
cause. Just because it works on my A500 running AmigaDOS 2.1 with a
ParNetted CDTV doesn't mean it will run on your 4000 running AmigaDOS 3.0
and a Pioneer multi-changer CD ROM.
I give my permission to have this program distributed in any manner (CD ROM
archives, FidoNet/OtherNet file echoes, diskette, etc.) as long as it is
kept with these docs so people don't come screaming to me that they can't
figure this out.
Usage:
Make a menu option OR include it your login batch file. InCD is a purely
CLI program meaning it doesn't require anything other than some way to
display output. The program has no options available from the command
line, therefore, just type InCD and you're off.
Adding New CD Descriptions:
To add a new CD description, create a file named exactly the same thing
as the CD. For example, a file named GIFS_GALORE would be used if the
volume name of the CD is GIFS_GALORE.
Precautions:
The program does *NOT* check for the actual existence of such device as
CD0:. Therefore, if you either don't have a CD ROM in the drive, or the
drive does not exist, you WILL get a message prompt telling you to insert
CD:. Get the picture? DLG does disable the prompts so it shouldn't be
too big of a problem.
How To Get In Touch:
I will be moving in a little over a month (May 1). Until then, you can
reach me at:
Gus's BS BBS
(813) 732-6987 (v.32bis)
UUCP: Guy_Smith@gusbsbbs.com
or: GUSMITH@delphi.com (a little more reliable)
FidoNet: 1:3630/180
EchoNet: 50:5813/180
CyberNet: 57:714/3
Voice: (813) 732-6987
After that, well, I really don't know. Best bet would be to leave a message
on the TPT Support board or a message in the DLG Developers echo. I don't
have the addresses or phone number right here at the moment, but I call
Ray Hines' DreamStates BBS all the time. Knowing Ray, he'd pass any
messages along.
